Well, the obvious reason is that zucchini is a healthy squash that is loaded with vitamin C and other nutrients. You may also have an abundance of the zucchini from your summer garden (as I do 🙋♀️) that needs to get used in a recipe.
However, zucchini does have some benefit to baked goods such as this bread.
Not only does zucchini add some nutrients, flavor, and a bit of texture, it also is a good source for moisture.
In this recipe, the zucchini needs to be grated in order to get it to a good size for blending with other ingredients. Once the zucchini is grated into smaller pieces, it can be evenly distributed which will help this bread bake more evenly.
To prepare the zucchini, you can first peel it or wash the skin well. Remove the ends if you are using a food processor or grating by hand. If you are using a spiralizer then follow the directions provided.
Here are some tips for making zucchini bread.
To make this recipe you will need to grate the zucchini and then allow for it to drain. Simply place the grated zucchini on a stack of paper towels or on a clean kitchen towel while you prepare the ingredients for this recipe.
More helpful tips for you.
- it is a good idea to double prep your loaf pan for this recipe. You can use both parchment paper and nonstick or even dust a bit of unsweetened cocoa powder.
- While my recipe uses a basic loaf pan, you can make this in a mini loaf pan or even a square baking pan if desired.
- Carefully unmold this from the pan. You can slide a knife around the edges of the bread to unstick it from the sides if needed.
How to store homemade zucchini bread.
This bread should be wrapped in plastic or foil or stored in an airtight container. If properly stored, it should keep for about five days at room temperature or frozen for about a month.
